What are the zeros of the polynomial function f(x) = x3 + 2x2 − 24x?

You may notice that all of the terms have a common factor: x. So, let's take the x out of all the terms. This gives us:

x(x^2 + 2x - 24) = 0


Using the Zero Product Property, we can say that both x = 0 and x^2 + 2x - 24 = 0.

Let's solve both. x = 0 is obvious, but we still need to solve our other term:

x^2 + 2x - 24 = 0

  • Set up

(x + 6)(x - 4) = 0

  • Factor

x = -6, 4

  • Apply the Zero Product Property

Our answer is x = -6, 0, 4.

The areas of two similar triangles are 75m2 and 300m2. The length of one of the sides of the second triangles is 9m. What is the
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

4.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of two similar triangles are 75 m2 and 300 m2. This gives you the scale factor of the triangles:

\dfrac{A_{small}}{A_{large}}=k^2\Rightarrow k^2 =\dfrac{75}{300}=\dfrac{3}{12}=\dfrac{1}{4}\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{1}{2}.

Then you can find the length of the corresponding side:

\dfrac{side_{small}}{side_{large}}=k\Rightarrow =\dfrac{side_{small}}{9}=\dfrac{1}{2},\ side_{small}=\dfrac{9}{2}=4.5\ m.
